Material Cultures and Studio Gil have realised a thoughtful and innovative project at the Wolves Lane Centre, rooted in circular construction and bio-regional material use. The buildings combine natural materials and low-energy systems to form a sustainable, place-responsive hub for community and environmental stewardship.

Last month, @greenpartyzack delivered his first major policy speech at the Wolves Lane Centre, in a new set of buildings designed by Material Cultures with @studiogil.
The project is a living example of how bio-regional materials can be applied to an urban site, creating much-needed infrastructure to build resilient communities and ecosystems.
The buildings are inherently rooted in place and low in embodied carbon, with a material palette that foregrounds clay, timber and rubble from the site itself.
Lightweight timber frames are infilled with straw bales sourced just 35 miles away. The clay extracted during the digging of the foundations is used aa internal wall plaster, crushed concrete from the existing slabs formed the rubble trench foundations and the metal cladding elements that slide down the elevations are designed to be readily reusable.
The inherently high thermal mass of the clay plaster and limecrete floors works alongside Air Source heat pumps integrated into a low-energy ventilation system. A rooftop PV array covers all energy needs, and the site is also effectively off-grid in terms of waste water thanks to a SuDS strategy featuring storm water sump, composting toilets, and greywater filtration through a natural pond.
Places like the @wolveslanecentre remind us of our dependence on the natural world and on each other. These kinds of spaces are rare, and it is vitally important that we continue to care for and invest in them.

In partnership with BG Architecture, Sanchez Benton Architects have created a refined infill housing scheme that brings eight affordable homes to a former brownfield site in Greenwich. The project’s restrained material palette, clear massing, and focus on landscape and energy efficiency establish a calm and enduring residential setting.
Reposted from @sanchez_benton - always with permission.
The second of our 100% social rent projects for Greenwich Builds has been granted planning permission. Working with BGA across many infill sites. The scheme for eight affordable homes on a brownfield site in Greenwich is the latest scheme in the borough’s ongoing house-building programme. The scheme turns a former garage site in Southwood Road into a three-storey development comprising four, two-bedroom and four one-bedroom homes.
The 594m² project follows the approval of seven affordable homes in Greenwich by the same team last month.
Both schemes will contribute to phase two of the Greenwich Builds programme, which ultimately aims to build 1,750 affordable homes across ‘redundant’ brownfield and infill plots in the borough. Phase two is aiming to create 152 affordable homes on 22 sites.
All of the homes will be fossil fuel-free with rooftop solar panels and air-source heat pumps incorporated to achieve an 84 per cent reduction in CO2 emissions compared with a building that meets minimum performance standards.
We are incredibly grateful to BG Architecture for inviting us to be part of their team for this project and for allowing us to lead on this one.
Council leader Anthony Okereke said: ‘These latest planning approvals show that despite the challenges facing homebuilders across the country, we are continuing to make headway towards our goal of creating 1,750 new council homes through the Greenwich Builds programme.
‘Social housing is the surest way to provide homes that are truly affordable, with rents that are linked to local incomes, helping to tackle the housing crisis and giving everyone in our community the option of a safe and secure place to live.

______________________________
In dem Verhandlungsverfahren “Quartiersentwicklung Angler-/ Heimeranstraße, München“ erhielt das Angebot mit dem Konzept der Bietergemeinschaft von ZRS Architekten, dRMM, IFUB*, Stadt Raum Planung den Zuschlag für die planerische Umsetzung.
Im Fokus steht das gemeinschaftliche Denken des gesamten Areals sowie die Schaffung von mehr bezahlbarem Wohnraum. Die Würdigung des Denkmals, maximaler Bestandserhalt und zirkuläre Bauweise sowie eine umfängliche Barrierefreiheit sind die zentralen Themen des Quartierskonzeptes – bestehend aus 6 Gebäuden und 3 Innenhöfen. Durch die Wahrung der im Bestand konservierten „grauen Energie“ wird das Projekt maximal nachhaltig. Der geringe Neubauanteil entsteht mit ökologischen Materialien in nachhaltiger Bauweise und soll möglichst kreislaufgerecht konzipiert werden. Dabei wird stets der gesamte Lebenszyklus betrachtet.
Das Projekt gehört zu den Pilotprojekten des „Gebäudetyps-e“ der Bayerischen Staatsregierung und ist ein Projekt in der Pilotreihe, der „Wohnlabore“ der Landeshauptstadt München. Es wird als Einzelvorhaben vom bayerischen Städtebauförderprogramm gefördert.

Designed by Stallan-Brand, the Laurieston Glasgow tenements re-establish the historic Norfolk Street with robust brick buildings that recall the character and rhythm of traditional urban tenement blocks. Organised through a contemporary ‘super block’ approach, the development brings together mixed-tenure housing, family homes, green spaces and active street edges to help restore a vibrant, liveable neighbourhood.

A few progress shots of our Laurieston Glasgow tenements slowly helping to re-establish the historic Norfolk Street that was entirely demolished in the 1970’s to make way for high-rise tower blocks, which were then again then demolished in 2019. Completely unsustainable legacy housing policies have blighted this location. Hopefully with our new ‘super block’ urbanism that provides flatted development to the busy edges of the principal streets, to then incorporates a mix of tenures, family housing, green space, lower parking densities within … the neighbourhood will again become a vibrant, liveable and complete place.

Designed by Artform Architects, this community hub in the Lake District brings together café, co-working, exhibition, and wellness facilities within a series of glulam timber pitched-roof volumes that open toward the surrounding landscape. Overlooking two attenuation lakes that form part of a wider SuDS strategy, the building sits gently in its rural setting while expressing a warm timber structure and a strong connection between architecture, water, and the natural landscape.

Another refreshed image of our community hub project in the Lakes produced by the wonderful @haze_viz.
The image brilliantly portrays the connection between building and landscape and is evocative of the beautiful context of the Lakes District National Park.
The building incorporates a variety of uses including cafe, community space, events & exhibition space, co-working, hydrotherapy pool and small community swimming pool.
Designed to overlook two attenuation lakes that are part of a site wide SuDS strategy, the architectural form expresses the glulam timber frame with a series of pitched-roof volumes that project out towards the landscape. The first floor accommodation is located within the roof space, allowing the building to sit low in its setting to respect the rural context.

LSD Architects’ proposal for the Church of Oak in Croatia reimagines a place of worship for a Baptist congregation rebuilding after the 2020 earthquake, grounding the new structure in a simple stone plinth and lifting it skyward with a faceted timber roof. Shaped by resilient local oak and carefully orchestrated natural light, the interior forms a warm, contemplative sanctuary where structure, benches and tall windows work together to create a dignified space for reflection, prayer and renewed community life.

The Church of Oak in Croatia is our proposal for a small Baptist congregation rebuilding after the 2020 earthquake.
It`s a church for a community that never stopped gathering, even without a building.
We chose two materials for the interior that felt inevitable: oak and light. Oak is abundant in the region, resilient, elastic, capable of withstanding future earthquakes. Light shapes the interior into a quiet, sacral space where timber structure, tall windows and changing daylight guide reflection and prayer.
A simple stone plinth anchors the building to the earth, while a faceted timber roof lifts the space upward. Inside, oak walls, benches and structure form one calm, continuous language, warm and made to last.
This is architecture as stewardship, rebuilding with local material, local craft, and care for a community that deserved dignity after devastation.
Many thanks to @haze_viz for these wonderful visualisations!

Tonkin Liu’s vision, realised in partnership with Webb Yates, has shaped the York Minster Centre of Excellence into an award-recognised addition to the cathedral precinct. Defined by elegant timber roof geometries and precise structural engineering, the Heritage Quad and Technology Hub create inspiring, light-filled spaces for making, learning and safeguarding centuries-old craftsmanship.
Reposted from @webbyates - always with permission.
York Minster Centre of Excellence has been shortlisted twice by RIBA.
The design, led by Tonkin Liu, has delivered world-class research, education, and training facilities across two new buildings on the site of the Grade I listed cathedral: the Heritage Quad and the Technology Hub. Together, they house masons’ workshops, new state-of-the-art digital fabrication tools, a drawing room, and a hall of residence for interns and international collaborators.
The structures have been recognised independently at the RIBA Yorkshire Awards, representing two of just seven stand out projects shortlisted for the region. The overall scheme has also made the MacEwen Award shortlist in acknowledgement of the wider project’s role in preserving heritage craft.
The designs optimise northern light, urban views, passive ventilation, structural efficiency, and solar orientation through the iterative development of the buildings and roof geometry. The result is a pair of forms closely tuned to their purpose and context. The roof structures take on hyperbolic paraboloid-like geometries, formed from straight timber elements that twist to create curved coverings. These are resolved through repeatable components and stressed-skin construction, with a consistent family of glulam members and layered plywood shaping the roofs.
Both buildings required a sensitive foundation strategy due to Roman archaeology across the historic site.
Congratulations to the team on delivering a facility that supports the long-term stewardship of one of northern Europe’s largest Gothic cathedrals.

ONE17 Design has reimagined a disused reservoir as an exceptional subterranean home in the Greenbelt, carefully preserving the strength and character of the original stone structure. Organised around a serene central courtyard with reinstated water, the light-filled interiors are wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glazing, creating a peaceful sanctuary embedded within the landscape.

From a redundant reservoir to a luxury tranquil abode in the Greenbelt. This proposal was recently granted planning approval to develop a subterranean home, which takes design inspiration from local reservoir architecture.
The scheme proposes to reinstate water into a central courtyard, with living accommodation strategically placed around the perimeter. Floor to ceiling glazing surrounds the courtyard, encouraging natural light to flood into the spaces.

We’ve been developing the design for the fit-out of the Royal College of Art’s studio spaces, as part of a major renovation of their Grade II listed Darwin building in Kensington, which we’re working on in collaboration with @wwmarchitects. Honouring Cadbury Brown’s original vision for the building “to act as a background to art and not assert itself as an ‘art thing’”, the approach is low-tech and low-carbon, using robust and readily available materials which the college can easily adapt in-house. The existing structure will be stripped back and left raw, with timber partitions to create smaller group teaching/ making spaces, as well as offer opportunities for pin-ups and end of year exhibitions. Very exciting to see the first phase of work underway on site, as we continue the design of the communal and public spaces on the lower levels.

Ashworth Parkes Architects’ Contemporary Farmhouse is a beautifully crafted rural home where Petersen Tegl’s D-76 brick defines chimneys, elevations, and connecting datums across the separated outbuildings. The brick’s subtle tonal shifts and handmade texture create a warm, enduring character both externally and within the full-height entrance hall, celebrating the material’s natural beauty.
Reposted from @ashworthparkes - always with permission.
A primary material used throughout the Contemporary Farmhouse project is the D-76 brick by Petersen Tegl, which forms the prominent chimneys, frames elevations and defines a key datum around the farmhouse for the separated ‘outbuildings’. The subtle colour changes and non-uniformity within the bricks, due to their specific method of manufacture, leads to a warm collage of tones across the building’s facades, appearing more akin to a reclaimed brick. Internally, the bricks have been used for the two walls bookending the full height entrance hall space. We tested out using a wash and a paint but eventually decided to leave this exposed to highlight the brick’s inherent aesthetic qualities.

Barry Wark’s Tùr House envisions architecture as something adaptable and enduring, using a façade of large-scale 3D-printed single-material blocks that can be dismantled, repaired, and reused over time. Set quietly within its natural surroundings, the project embraces weathering as a design force, creating an introspective home where the textured envelope absorbs the landscape rather than disappearing into it.

Tùr House.
.
Rather than treating buildings as fixed and disposable objects, the project asks how architecture might be designed to evolve over time—able to be taken apart, repaired, and reconfigured as needs change. At the center of the proposal is a single-material building envelope made from large-scale 3D-printed blocks. The façade is conceived as an independent outer layer, separate from the structure and interior spaces inside. By avoiding complex, multi-layered façade systems, the project imagines a more circular approach to construction, where materials can be reused or recycled.
.
The building does not resist weathering and environment but absorbs it. In contrast to the familiar image of the transparent glass house in nature, this project proposes a quieter, more introspective domestic environment.

PLANNING APPROVED.
This scheme, in Newport, borders the St Woolos Conservation Area.
An existing 19th Century school is being reimagined as 28 one and 2 bedroom flats, with a shared internal courtyard and landscaped garden.
The existing structure is being respected and conserved while a new build block will contrast and complement the existing buildings.
Challenges, such as daylighting the individual flats were overcome by incorporating large windows and roof lights thus flooding the spaces with light and providing views of the street and courtyards.
